Owner's Description
Plastic Man #40 is referenced in Geoffrey Wagner’s “Parade of Pleasure” (POP) in the text on page 91.
Wagner describes Plastic Man #40 as follows “In Plastic Man no 40 ‘Plas’, as he is known to his intimates, starts off in an FBI Office – ‘YAWWWN! I’ve never seen crime so dull! Chief! I wish something would happen!’ It does. Using his arms as lassoos [sic], as ropes for binding recalcitrant prisoners, and for slugging round street corners, Plas swiftly fixes things up and catches the crooks, including a hula-hula dancer who turns men into monsters by hypodermic injections and cool Cola drinks. Wiggly Wanda, as this girl is called, apparently has some rather unlikely connection with the scientists at Los Alamos. The last story in this issue ends in the usual all in with a dozen criminals and Plas’s remark, as he KOs them one by one, ‘I’ll put you out of your misery!’
Wagner’s narrative comes from the story “Maker of Monsters” contained in Plastic Man #40.
